ISU offers advice to Cyclone, Hawkeye fans

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State University expects about 75,000 football fans to converge on the campus for Saturday’s matchup between the Cyclones and the Iowa Hawkeyes. University officials have a little advice for fans.

It’s much easier to get into Jack Trice Stadium with without large bags or purses.

Other things not to bring — a pet, a cooler, and obviously, a weapon. Also not allowed — alcohol, artificial noisemakers, backpacks and fanny packs, stadium seats or coolers. And don’t smoke.

The gates open at 3:30 p.m. General parking lots will begin taking cars at 11 a.m.

Profanity, racial or sexist comments or other intimidating actions directed at other fans, the teams or the officials may lead to an arrest.

Anyone driving from Iowa City could encounter construction on Interstate 80 near Altoona.
